The theory that Earth is not the only inhabited planet is completely consistent with both by personal and spiritual beliefs.
In fact, the idea is compatible with most interpretations of most religions, and even centrally supported by some religions.

It would be awfully vain and pretentious of "us" (human beings) to presume that we are the ONLY intelligent life in the vast and infinite universe. Were are only a small speckle on a much grander scale. I too am a Christian by birth (most people are the religion too which they were born) and I believe in one true GOD. As far as the Bible discounting extra terrestrial life, it neither supports it or denies it. In fact, it doesn't even address the topic. The Bible is directed to man kind here on earth and no where else.

Seeing as how expansive the Universe is, I would be surprised if there were NOT other beings out there. My belief in extra-terrestrial life is based on reason and mathematical odds.

The Bible is just a "Theory" also. Many people give It credibility towards their beliefs. Those who give extra-terrestrials credibility are exactly the same as those who give the bible credibility.

It would be very odd to think that this, in the huge vastness of the universe, is the only inhabited planet. Odd, and perhaps, arrogant.
I believe God created the entire universe, complete with any and all life it contains.
I think the fall must have been a "cosmic event"...since entropy is universal (pun intended). I think that the advent of God was also a "cosmic event", as was His death, and His resurrection...as His Second Coming will also be.
Why should we limit God to just this one little rock?? After all, isn't He omnipresent, as well as omnipotent and omniscient?

I'm convinced of life in the universe besides us but I am not convinced they have been here. Just like god, there's no real evidence.
The universe is so vast and the technology would have to be so advanced for them to get here. Then they use probes up our as.ses?
Don't think so.

particular, nature provides us 2 solid products of information that ought to steer somebody to have faith that there is a writer. the 1st is merely the dazzling thing approximately nature, yet considering that people who understand God are conscious of it and people who do unlikely sense that splendor is likewise something that persons made up, so i will bypass it. the main important piece of information that there is a writer is that between the main easy "regulations" of nature is broken by ability of life. Entropy, or the 2d regulation of thermodynamics states that, absent attempt to provide up it, that issues clearly circulate from greater prepared and complicated states in the direction of greater chaotic and easy states. that's a thought that seems to hold genuine rather plenty any time--till you look at living creatures. as quickly as you look on the wildlife, you should argue that their variety is a effect of their opposition--that this opposition motives creatures make the attempt to stay to tell the story and flourish. once you commence entering into the how and why of this going on, you spot that those creatures do not make efforts to have distinctive characteristics, that it form of merely occurs--for a form of motives, yet not via fact the organisms are making an attempt. There are genetic modifications, mutations, and environmental forces that push nature to this point of splendor. those factors tend to boost the corporate and complexity of organisms and nature as an entire, with out attempt from each and every individual. by some ability, life defeats entropy, and yet we are actually not seeing the paintings that's used to provide up each and everything from proceeding to ailment, probable via fact it occurs in strategies we are only commencing to understand. as quickly as you commence unraveling the wonders of genetics and ecology, it gets harder and harder to have faith that that is each and all the failings that ensue to make the international as all of us are conscious of it befell from randomness and reinforcement--you merely approximately ought to have faith that that's a equipment somebody prepare to motivate this form of boost.

I have never met any extra-terrestrials. So that does and does not prove they exist.
My beliefs have nothing to do with aliens- I believe in God and Jesus and they are not aliens, but the Creators of everything.

Not at all.
The main reason I'm a Christian is because there is one book and one book only. It tells me everything I need to know for every situation. It doesn't say in there that God created extra-terrestrials. If I WEREN'T a Christian.....I'd probably think that's who we evolved from.

I believe that what humanity views as creatures of divinity are beings from other worlds who are more advanced then us. Some of them are viewed as evil, while others are extremely benevolent. It is possible that we were created by such an extraterrestrial race.
